EQ9686 - 225Amp Circuit Breaker Description
EQ9686 - 225Amp Circuit Breaker
When you need a replacement main breaker for a compatible Siemens or legacy ITE EQ96 panel, the Siemens EQ9686 is designed to match the original form, fit, and function of the existing installation. Rated at 225 amps, this 2-pole plug-in circuit breaker uses a thermal magnetic trip design to help protect electrical systems from overloads and short circuits. It occupies four single-pole spaces, making it important to verify panel compatibility before installation.
Whether you're maintaining an existing electrical system in a commercial building, industrial facility, or large residential property, matching the original breaker specifications helps preserve the panel's intended configuration.
